Samsung is working on a premium Galaxy M smartphone. Dubbed as Galaxy M40, the smartphone is likely to launch in India early next month.

At about ₹25,000, Samsung Galaxy M40 will be the most expensive Galaxy M phone so far. It will also be Samsung's first Galaxy M phone to run on Qualcomm's Snapdragon processor. All Galaxy M10, M20 and M30 are powered by the company's in-house Exynos processor.

Samsung is also likely to introduce some flagship features on Galaxy M40, starting with the "Hole-in-Display", a technology that's currently found on the South Korean tech giant's flagship S10 series, according to IANS.

According to earlier reports, Samsung Galaxy M40 will come with a 5,000mAh battery, up to 6GB of RAM, AMOLED display, and triple-rear cameras.

Samsung India launched Galaxy M30 in two storage variants in February, starting at ₹14,990. M30's 6GB+128GB variant was priced at ₹17,990 and the 4GB+64GB variant was available for ₹14,990.

Samsung launched the Galaxy M10 and M20 smartphones in January.
